jekyll and sdoc are development dependencies to generate the website, you won't need them. Thanks for the offer! I'll happily work with you on this. Thanks, Antoine On Tue, Aug 17, 2010 at 12:19, kristian wrote: > On Tue, Aug 17, 2010 at 11:55 PM, Antoine Toulme > wrote: > > OK, I'm in touch

OK, I'm in touch with the debian team, and I'll see what it takes to sneak buildr as part of the gentoo distribution, before I push this further. If you are involved with gentoo, I'd be happy to discuss with you on the best way to make buildr happen there. Thanks, Antoine On Tue, Aug 17, 2010 a

Hi Kristian, actually some Fedora folks contacted me and I think there is a bundle for Buildr now since they use it for Candlespin. I don't know if there is a bundle for Debian but I'd be glad to make it happen. Our installation instructions are probably outdated - we can work on that, and having

hello, I have a few thoughts about jruby and why is there no jruby in fedora or outdated version in ubuntu/debian - gentoo is quite impressive (and better then it was when I used gentoo myself). all these linux distributions are about dependency management. and when building a package there needs

2010-08-16 Thread Antoine Toulme
So I pick up 3 concerns: 1. It has to do at least a better job than the previous build, and be easy to adopt. 2. It has to build from source. 3. It depends on jruby. 1. in my opinion is a no-brainer. If there is no advantage and it's hard to play with, why bother. 2. is tricky, because it sounds

Those are my concerns too. For those things like jffi and jruby itself where using buildr would create a circular dependency, having buildr as an alternative is fine, just not the main build system. If it could exterminate the maven vermin, it would be well worth it. On 13 August 2010 09:12, Cha

Here's my concerns: * We've already started moving our build into Rake a bit by bit, and the bootstrapping question becomes apparent very quickly. In other words, we need JRuby (or Ruby) to run Buildr/Rake, but need Buildr/Rake to build JRuby. * Our Ant build has been a bitch to maintain, but now

Hi devs, I would like to contribute a Buildr based build to JRuby. Buildr is a Rake-based build system that integrates well with Maven repositories, has a goal-based lifecycle that is very easy to extend and work with. Buildr works on top of MRI or JRuby. I recently contributed a build using Bui
